    I tied lots on my driftwood using fishing light, wrapped it tightly and all turned brown after few weeks. I started again with new pelia, this time I glued it on those same driftwoods, coming to two weeks now and going good. Can see some new growth (lighter green, hopefully!). I suspect it could be the way we tie the pelia, I remember reading somewhere that its very fragile and such.

    I have placed some of the same batch that melted in my other shrimp tank , no chiller with just low co2 amount and it flourish.

    Re: Scaping with Mini Pelia as carpet plant

    The pelia on my lava rocks are now white and pale green. I think they are withering or decaying.

    No co2 and not running on chiller. Lights are in 8 hours a day. Temperature in my room is usually 30 degrees to 32 degrees.

    Im guessing its the heat or maybe pelia requires co2

    Thanks for sharing Urban Aquaria. Hope it works now. Attached is my tank, quite messy because the plants are over grown so how. Hope to provide a periodic update on the mini pelia. Finally able to post ¬

    When you mean no co2. You meant pressurise injection rite. Do you use excel?

    The time is weird too. You mean no light?

    Yes. No form of co2, no pressure injection, no excel. Just light and overhang filter, with aircon. Thanks for highlighting, It should be 7pm to 7am (12 hours).

    It took about 1 year to grow to something like that, without co2.

    Re: Scaping with Mini Pelia as carpet plant

    jus my opinion but i think most plants tend to fare better with lower temp. co2 is more like a bonus/boost. even wit co2 is ur temp ard 30-31 may not grow as beautiful too
